    The guys selling the car do know what it is, and do know what its capable of, thats why they bought it

    Speaking to Dee and Dave there, they know there skylines! and this is why this S14 caught there eye

    But they dont know exact specifics, as it is so easy as to of made it 4WD by putting the drive shafts in, they cant 100% be sure that it is 4WD or RWD

    As said, we had first refusal on this car, with the hope that it was landing on the 8th of May to check it over, but I aint got the balls to buy a car without seeing it first

    Its basically forst one to put money doen on it gets it now

    definitely not sold yet, was on the calder's stand at the fast car show at ingliston over the weekend. very nice car, looks awesome in the flesh, but in true calder's style it was wearing a "uk's only 200sx with a skyline engine" tag

    I'm gonna pop down when it lands and have a good poke around it. IF it isn't shipped straight out as soon as it gets there. Something tells me we'll see it at Crail or Knockhill before Calders lets it go

    I just want to see the car UK registered. I am curious as to how much work it will take them to get it UK legal, if at all possible.

    If they only use it as a show car, then it will not need to be registered, they can transport it around or use trade plates.....

    Sounds like what Calder does with all it's 'DEMO' cars....

    like they do with all their cars

    - take all offending items off - wheels - exchange for smaller - add idicators etc etc etc. Then SVA it.

    Arrives back at garage and all items that were originally on go back on.

    My point - this car Dee was meant to have been searching for for years and now its here and he bought it. Supposedly he has to sell as his father say he has too many / money etc. But if it is so rare then why not push on some of the other demo cars and keep this......... get me?

    I know all the SVA stuff (I do SVA also) but for a car so modified, it gets rather difficult....

    Lets see if it's registered by Billing.....
